Learn to Code in UE5 - 1 - Programming Basics

[@JohnGold137]

I can't belive this is free. Thank you so much for making this. This is the only tutorial that I have ever walked away with new knowledge.

[@CoquiGames]

Thank you!!

[@PuffyfishRBX]

Yeah unlike unities new payment model🙄

[@cshainer1]

You are amazing. This tutorial series is one of the best I've ever done and I've ever followed. You are great at breaking things down and giving an overview of the what and why, rather than just the how. Thank you so much for publishing this series. It's absolutely perfect.

[@CoquiGames]

Thank you very much for the kind words! I'm really glad its been so helpful :)

[@pixel_lust]

man just started video 1 and you already have me motivated and inspired for this whole series. you explain concepts very clearly for a person with very little experience and understanding of coding. thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your knowledge and producing this series.

[@CoquiGames]

Glad to hear it! You're very welcome :)

[@blacklotussyndicate5740]

I learned more in 15 minutes than I did in every highschool computer class combined, great content! This is exactly the foundation I've been looking for. So many tutorials assume you're at least tech literate and I've just never been able to break the barrier. Thanks for doing this!

[@CoquiGames]

Glad to hear it! That was my intention - to start from the beginning to teach a good foundation :)

[@navysnow5618]

Thank you for making this course here cause I want to do something with my life. I will finish this in under a week minimum or I am going to the gym for 2 hours a day every day until I finish it. I am either gonna come out buffed or learning something.

[@CoquiGames]

Glad to hear it! Feel free to come over to Discord if you have any questions or suggestions :)

[@eddielonestar7962]

Muchas gracias amigo! Finally, a down to earth course which teaches the proper way. I wish I had searched your channel sooner. I'll be sure to complete this one. So many guys are offering some type of UE5 course, but they fail to explain the foundational basics, which are paramount in the overall development of any project. I've been learning as I go for the last 12 months and have learnt quite a bit, but when typing out blueprints from other KZbinrs, I've missed the reason as to why certain nodes were used. Optimization is so important also. So many ways to do something, but efficiency is key to having a game or project run smoothly. I feel this course will be different. I look forward to this one. Cheers for your efforts.

[@fongfs298]

Very Good starting. Clear explaination. The very first Unreal lesson that help me to have a good start. Thank you !

[@djh345]

This is the definition of quality. Such a way to describe everything, every detail needed to grasp the consept fully! i am beyond amazed and super grateful! Without the Why i am unable to learn! #1

[@CoquiGames]

Thank you for the kind words! Really glad you are finding it useful!

[@wallacesousuke1433]

ROFL you're amazing, in this single, tiny video, I finally grasped what's the difference between actors, pawns, character classes, you rock, bro (I wish you had courses on Udemy so I could support you by buying them)

[@CoquiGames]

Thank you! Glad to hear it! :)

[@Incomestreamsurfers]

Damn - this is some amazing content. I am going to take inspiration from this channel (completely different niche) Thanks so mcuh for providing this and for giving me some ideas for content

[@CoquiGames]

Np! And hope it goes well on your channel :)

[@Horizon800]

I like how you condense the information in an understandable way rather than making a 20-hour tutorial blabbering about nothing and everything. Good job. You are good at this. 😁

[@Dan_Gilpin]

I followed a Unity course a few years ago, the most basic starting examples was to set up classes for a text-based game, and I spent probably 2 days typing out all these different class states out, yet never had any clue about this whole parent/child thing. Decided to give Unreal a go yesterday and glad I came across this course, explains things so much better than another one I've been watching!

[@DhrumilDoshi2002]

so when you gave us to try making classes and use inheritance Did you mean like : Aeroplane-Commercial planes-Boeing-Boeing 737 & About the chart part Class(Aeroplane) Description (is an actor) Attributes(Can Fly) Function(Travelling), Class(Commercial) Description (is an actor with specific attributes & Functionallites) Attributes(Can Fly) Function(Can a group of people), Class(Boeing 737) Description (is an actor used for commercial travel) Attributes(Can Fly) Function(can carry 500-600 People). Am I on the same page your feedback will be really helpful and thank you for the tutorials.

[@ChaseTheVase]

In your opinion, how limiting are Blueprints compared to C++? I know Blueprints are extremely powerful but are there instances where Blueprints won't be able to get the job done? How frequent would one run into that issue?

[@CoquiGames]

There are certainly limits to BPs compared to C++. The two biggest areas will be in cases where you need very high performance at runtime (like complex math calculations or generating an entire procedural world like in Minecraft) and custom solutions to the engine (like custom editors / tools). C++ is also the only way to integrate external libraries with Unreal (maybe ML libraries or other libraries that have C++ bindings). With all that said, Blueprints offer faster iteration than C++, and they are fast enough for most gameplay code (games are mostly GPU-limited nowadays, so your gameplay code is not usually causing the biggest performance impact). AAA studios, including Epic Games, use a combination of both to get the best of both worlds. If you are a beginner, you should start with Blueprints to learn the engine framework. Then once you move on to C++ you will already be familiar with the major systems and APIs and it will be easier to learn at that point :)

[@ChaseTheVase]

@@CoquiGames Thank you for the thorough explanation :) I have a small amount of knowledge of both, so I was actually able to follow your explanation😂

[@gamingoverpowered4127]

You are amazing this is the second lesson and I've already learnt so much. and I'm glad that i found this video because I've never actually known what to do because these how to videos they show you how to do something but not the fundamentals of how to do it and i always have to come back to the how to video because i don't know how to implement that thing myself. for example they show me how to make a working door that you can click e to open but they just show you how to make the door open in steps but not the fundamentals of each thing but none the less thank so much

[@CoquiGames]

Glad to hear it! You are very welcome :)

[@ValoFear]

bro teaches better then my highschool teacher

[@CoquiGames]

Haha glad to hear it :D

[@knucklesgb3143]

I'm watching, I'm listening and trying to learn but I just zone out and miss like two or three lines of what is being said, this isn't exclusive to your channel I just can't focus I should clarify that, the video is good, and it's not like a phone distracts me or something I just zone out staring at the screen next thing I know I'm seeing a new table of stuff that's been there for 10 seconds

[@AdireetiVlogs]

Should i know any basic about c++ to understand blueprint or its fine to start blueprint direct without any knowledge about c++ Plz sugest

[@mohammadayman9631]

Amazing!!! This is so good for the people who are starting new thanks!!😊

[@CoquiGames]

Glad to hear it! :)

[@josephmiceli274]

Wow. This is pure gold. Thank you for doing this series!

[@kimosaber9937]

music is a bit distracting, it should be toned down after the intro's over.

[@RaviShinde-wu9sj]

Great video ! i am not from programming background and intermediate user of UE thanks for such a great fundamental which is needed to everyone who learn Bluprint in UE really understandable concept .

[@CoquiGames]

Glad to hear it!

[@orifromout8922]

Would you recommend this series to someone completely inexperienced in UE5? I've wanted to get into game development after using blender and making models and stuff for a long time I just don't know where the best place to start is. Appreciate any help

[@CoquiGames]

Yes! Absolutely! This course is designed for complete beginners. The only caveat is that I dont go over general information about the Unreal Engine editor - this course focuses on the coding aspect. I would suggest also looking at courses like "Your First Hour in Unreal" to get familiar with the editor :)

[@cgonz8]

Hola Coquí - thanks so much for this lesson. Mi primo es un artista de videojuegos y yo quiero aprender a hacer videojuegos con el.

[@CoquiGames]

Bienvenido! Este es un buen lugar para emperzar a aprender. Cuando termines la clase sigue practicando y no te des por vencido :)

[@AvantNovis]

Thank you!

[@QFGEE]

I wish I'd found this earlier, I did a few tutorials before and kept bashing my head against a wall because I didn't understand the basics.

[@CoquiGames]

Glad you found us :)

[@UltimisRBX]

Are you gonna do a C++ one aswell?? Just asking to be sure.

[@CoquiGames]

Not for a while as I'm still a beginner / intermediate in C++ so I don't feel comfortable making a course yet. Perhaps once I level up myself :)

[@aaronstarling9837]

Amazing brother, thank you so much for making this.

[@CoquiGames]

You're welcome!

[@pendingchange3776]

i have zero experience with coding like at all but eventualy i will learn no matter how many years it takes

[@CoquiGames]

Yes you will! Keep at it and you'll see that soon everything will start to click :)

[@Akbartech1]

i am happy to watch your Learn to Code in UE5 - 1 - Programming Basics..thanks

[@JohnWilkinsonTesla]

Oh thank God. Everything makes so much sense now.

[@KiwiHawk-downunder-nz]

Ka pai

[@themax2go]

you made a bit of a mistake here, not every code is compiled; scripting (like in ue) is "interpreted" and not "compiled", technically speaking. but i suppose for all sense and purposes, you don't have to get into that much detail, but it's still something i think that's good to convey - or just leave out that part all together, because it's not really relevant for UE5 blueprints

[@CoquiGames]

You are right - Blueprints are interpreted on a VM. However, I felt it was unnecessary detail for this lesson :)

[@cake1158]

OH MY! This is free! This was absolutely AMAZING! I learned so much! Thank you! Thank you bro!

[@CoquiGames]

So glad to hear it! :)

[@danielkvidera4256]

I love it! When I started my way for game developing, I was using an easy programming language, scratch. It's one of the easiest programing languages what was ever been, but if you are trying to make a game like platform game (super mario Bros,Mega man, ...) you need to code your own gravity and collision,and its an 2D engine. After that I started with Godot. And now, I can finnaly start making real games,and You are the best for learning engines like unity and unreal engine.thank you! Daniel Kvídera,Czech republic

[@CoquiGames]

Welcome to Unreal Daniel! Glad you are here :)

[@taisleng]

I swear you are soooo good at explaining....

[@MasoRex415]

parent: gun child: barrel

[@CoquiGames]

That could work, but think about children being a type of the parent class. So a salmon is a type of fish. A Poodle is a type of dog, which is a type of animal.

I have been conceptualizing a game for about a year from now, and your channel has helped me surpass my fear of coding and Blueprints. Thank you a lot, hope one day you can play my game ^^

[@CoquiGames]

Glad to hear it! And please join our Discord and showcase your game when you are ready - would love to see it :)

[@irun1639]

I'm new to unreal and I was wondering if your tutorials could translate over to unreal engine 4? Is it the exact same as 5?

[@CoquiGames]

Yup! These principles apply equally to UE4! In fact, you can follow the course with UE4 as everything here is the same (minus the obvious UI differences)

[@luarzeraus494]

You are a great techer, thank you

[@TacoBear_Studios]

| < Class - Plant < Description - Flower < Attributes - Sunflower < Functionality - Heliotropic | Please give me a thumbs up if this is correct. If I have the understanding of inheritance, I would really appreciate it if I got the concept correctly.

[@CoquiGames]

Yup! That sounds like a good way to create a class hierarchy: Plant -> Flower -> Sunflower. For each class in the above hierarchy you can define attributes (data) and functionality. And each child class will inherit the attributes and functionality from the class above. So Flower will inherit everthing from Plant, for example

[@AndersHaalandverby]

This is by the way exactly how plants and animals are classified. So if you find something in nature, you can ask questions and go down the tree until you have found the classification. Ie does it grow in the ground , does it have leaves, visible seeds etc, this way you can exclude all things that are not sunflower, so it must be a sunflower 😄 A rose , for instance has many things in common with a sunflower,( they are both flowers, for instance) so they are in the same class, but not family etc

Hii, I wanted to say that I'm excited to see your course I just have a question 😅 I'm not a programmer I don't know anything about programming but I'm interested in games and the making of them is it possible to learn and get into this course even if I'm not a programmer ? Thanks again ❤

[@CoquiGames]

Yes! This course was made for the complete beginner. If you have programmed before it will help, but its not needed. Please give it a try and dont give up! You will start getting it the more you practice :)
